Peach Stone Bianco 2018

Terre Siciliane IGT

The name Peach Stone says it all, because this is brimming with ripe stone fruit flavours. Soft, mouthfilling, yet crisp and fresh. It showcases one of Italy’s thrilling native grapes and a brilliant young winemaker whose wines are creating a buzz.

The ever-smiling Federica Lauterio has made wines all across Italy, and California too. But Sicily, Italy’s very own sunshine state, is where she’s really made her mark, with wines that reflect her own sunny disposition. Peach Stone gains its luscious roundness from local speciality Grillo, the grape behind Sicily’s new breed of fine whites. It’s also crackling with energy thanks to a generous dash of Sauvignon Blanc grown on the island’s higher slopes, where cool breezes produce pristine, pure tasting, lemony and grassy fresh fruit. Lovely on its own and superb with all kinds of seafood. Federica recommends serving this with freshly grilled sardines drizzled with lemon. A match made in Sicily that’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

"Lovely refreshing wine. Minerally and fruity, this really is very drinkable"
